Yes it was an Factory-Authorized dealer (with full MAC support ;) and yes
our school is accredited.
However, we are a private school and don't have a "district office" to go
through with a purchase order.  As far as "official enough" is concerned
Brinton may be right.  "I know" that I have the power to spend any and all
funds in the "Computer" budget and that I would use the school office and
school stationary to do so, but they may not have believed that.  I'll ask
the school principal to contact the dealer next time.
